Vibe Coding 101: How To Turn Your Ideas Into Apps

Welcome to yet another episode of the Build In Public Podcast! 🎉

Today's episode is something completely different - a LIVE BUILD SESSION where I teamed up with Conor Martin, one of my favorite builders on Twitter, to show you exactly how vibe coding works from zero to deployed app in real-time.

Conor is a vibe coding expert who's built multiple apps with Bolt.new and created an entire course platform using the tools he teaches. We decided to record this special episode because I keep getting DMs asking "KP, how do I actually get started with vibe coding?" - well, here's your answer!

In this episode, Conor and I walk through building two complete apps live: an import duty calculator for work use cases, and a beautiful gratitude journal for personal projects. We show you the entire process from ChatGPT prompting to final deployment on Netlify - no editing, no shortcuts, just real building.

What we covered:
✅ What vibe coding actually means
✅ Live builds of two complete apps from scratch to deployment
✅ The best tools: Bolt.new, Lovable.dev, Cursor, Windsurf, and Replit
✅ How to use ChatGPT to generate perfect prompts for Bolt
✅ Integrating Stripe payments, Supabase databases, and OpenAI APIs
✅ Design tricks and responsive mobile optimization
✅ Common limitations and security considerations
✅ Why your v1 should probably suck (but be deployed fast)

This is for anyone who's been curious about vibe coding but didn't know where to start. Conor and I break it down so simply that even complete beginners can follow along and build their first app by the end of this episode. Let us know if you have any Qs along in your journey!
